Statement From Steve & Alex Cohen On The Passing of Baseball Hall Of Famer Willie Mays

Willie Mays, 1975, SSPC Baseball Card


"Willie Mays was one of the greatest to ever play the game. Willie ended his Hall of Fame career in Queens and was a key piece to the 1973 NL championship team. Mays played with a style and grace like no one else. Alex and I were thrilled to honor a previous promise from Joan Payson to retire his iconic #24 as a member of the Mets in 2022. On behalf of our entire organization, we send our thoughts and prayers to Willie's family and friends."
